What should a Court Officer do when believed to have been exposed to disease in the Courts?

  1. Advise supervisor.

  2. Fill out Unusual Occurrence Report

  3. Fill out Infectious Disease Case Report (UF 136)

  4. Fill out Aided Report (UF 100)

The correct answer is: Advise supervisor.

A Court Officer should always inform their supervisor when they believe they have been exposed to a disease in the Courts for several reasons. Firstly, the supervisor may need to take immediate action to prevent the spread of the disease to others in the Court, such as notifying relevant authorities or conducting necessary disinfection procedures. Additionally, the supervisor can also provide guidance and support to the Court Officer, such as arranging for medical attention or providing information on what steps to take to protect themselves and others. Therefore, Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not involve informing the supervisor, which could lead to delays in taking necessary actions and potentially putting others at risk.
